Durian fruit paste sausage

Well known for its unusual pungent smell, this fruit is one of the most popular in Thailand. To the untrained nose the smell can be quite disgusting so some hotels in Thailand have no durian signs because of this.

People either love it or loathe, kind of like the marmite or cheese in the western world, so we'll leave it up to you to make up your own mind. Durian fruit comes in a large spicky outer shell, the shell is removed to reveal a small amount of yellow meat that is usually quite expensive compared to other fruits. This meat is removed and either sold fresh or it's blended with a little sugar and sold in a sausage shape pack such as this item and can be eaten straight out of the pack.
